Colorado River Project: Progress Work
All other boards, including:
- Lake Mead's (primarily...but also possibly Diamond Valley Reservoir) decreased water levels, attributed to increased populations, development, and severe prolonged drought throughout the Southwest; also include quantity of water stored by MWD in this particular reservoir (550,000 maf).
- The specific aqueduct system mapped, in section, demonstrating how and in what form it moves water
- Water use in the city (what is essential and how it is divided -- residential, industrial, agricultural; what use is attributed more to the lifestyle of residing in LA, including quantity of water used in swimming pools, large scale irrigation, golf courses, resorts, attractions, and wildfire supression)
- Palo Verde Irrigation District land fallowing program (sponsored by MWD to transfer 9.6 billion gallons of agricultural waters to urban areas annually).
...to be posted within the next week, including edits to those attached.
Thanks,
Stephanie
